Alan24 Posted 8 December , 2023 Share Posted 8 December , 2023 (edited) Frederick W Flight traded at 90 and 83 High Street Winchester, at least as early as 1877. He lived at nearby Twyford. My guess is that this campaign chest dates to the 19th century. No.90 is now O'Neills Bar, just a stone's throw from the Rifle Depot. No.83 is an estate agents. Edit: The Crown on the maker's plate is that used by Queen Victoria, so pre 1901. Edited 8 December , 2023 by Alan24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
